scoundrel, Mar 02, 2006

Wow, who kidnapped Ian Pooley and why is this bland imposter in his place? SOUVENIRS takes Pooley's Latin tendencies in SINCE THEN and makes them a full-blown syndrome. "Hotel Boogie" has an easygoing funk that sounds as if anyone could have done it. Even more upbeat tracks like "All About You" or "Heaven" are good, but don't have anything special about them. Marcos Valle's appearance on "Sentimento" doesn't say anything about Pooley's skills as much as it does Valle's. "Bony Batucada" sounds too much like tracks from SINCE THEN. "Distant Love" has a more personality, but it disappears by "Insel Passage." If this review sounds negative, keep in mind that the album as a whole is still competent and has some finger-snapping charms. But based on what Pooley has done before, it's far, far below his abilities.
